My passenger window (right side since it is US spec

) rattles when it is opened as if it is coming loose. Anyone experience this or know how to easily fix it?

TIA

Do you close your door with the window? Meaning putting a lot of pressure and stress on the glass when closing the door?

I do not push on the glass, but I have had some passengers that have. I now ask them politely to not push on the glass, but it is now at the point where it needs to be fixed.

Due to the loose window situation it cannot be fixed and it is a design fault in my point of view....i had to replace the glass once and no matter what you tightened you cannot solve the rattle.grin and bear it!!!!
